"Saying 'I love you' is so overrated..."

"It's still nice to hear once in a while, you know."



"What are you doing now?" I asked, squinting my eyes at the four little boys stand around Seung Hyun's bed. In monastery they slept on mattresses and put them away every morning to save space.

The boys were whispering something amongst themselves, totally captivated by what they were doing and when they heard my irritated voice they all flinched jumping to the side, quickly hiding something, they were holding, behind their backs.

"Yah, loser, how can you be so stupid?" Jung Woo pointed his small index finger at me. "You are seriously, so retarded."

"What?" I shrieked. "You just wait" growling I started rolling up my sleeves.

"How can you sleep in the same room with him" Chubby nodded at Seung Hyun who was standing by my side. I glanced at his a little stunned and very amused face. Well, that's something I don't understand either, those erted nuns. My cheeks flustered a little at the thought.

"Oh my God! She is blushing!"

"Ha, what a ert!"

"No I wasn't" I grunted.

"Yes you were."

"No."

"Yes."

"NO!"

"Anyway, the wolf guy will eat you while you sleep" Nerdy pushed his glasses closer to his eyes.

"Because you are so weak and dense, you shouldn't share your room with any guys. Especially wolfs. And you blushed."

"First you need to get married, anyway" China boy said sternly. "Didn't you know, nuna?" he wiggled his eyebrows.

"Get out of here!" I yelled. "All of you! And I didn't blush!"

"No way, I am not allowing this" Jung Woo crossed his arms over his chest and raised up his chin.

"He can go sleep on my bed, I will sleep with you to make sure nothing happens."

"Since when did I start taking orders from you?" I raised an eyebrow, holding in my laughter.

"Look at her, we are just trying to help and she..." Chubby acted all dramatic.

"Well little princes" Seung Hyun suddenly spoke up and his eyes glinted playfully when his hand reached for mine. Since when has he been around?

"I'll give this princess to you if you can catch me" he smirked and darted away tugging me along in a swift run.

"Get him!"

"You will pay for this!"

"Don't touch her!"

"Don't worry loser, we will save you!"

"Stop calling me a loser" I yapped at them while trying to keep up with Seung Hyun's amazing speed, soon getting out of breathe. Note to myself: start working out.

A bright laughter left his lips as he kept running not even a tad bit worn out. What amazed me wasn't his freakishly handsome face and good shape but the fact he was running with such confidence like he knew where he was going. And when he pulled me in the library room and pushed into the small recess of the wide from ceiling to floor window, I was sure he must have known where to hide. Either he had taken a stroll around the place when I thought he was sleeping or then...

I don't really know. I don't dare to guess.

Seung Hyun quickly pulled the curtain to hide us both from any curious eyes that might have landed on the distant window. I knew and I could tell he knew too, hiding like that, from the other side it looked like we weren't there because it was impossible to tell there actually was a recess there.

"They will never find us here" Seung Hyun whispered, his breathing a little faster and heavier than usual but not in a disgusting kind of way. It freaked me out how y he actually sounded and then I realized he was leaning against me holding me still, his palm resting against the wall next to my ear.

"Yah, don't come so close" I placed my hands on his chest wanting to push him away.

"Shhh" his eyes blamed me as he quickly glanced down.

"This is cr-" I started to say but he covered my mouth with his palm.

"Shhh" he hissed a little louder just before we heard little feet rush in the room and stomp around.

"It doesn't look like they are here."

"Damn, where did that wolf bastar.d take my nuna to?" I recognized Jung Woo's agitated voice and laughed silently by myself.

I knew he was secretly harboring a major crush on me. But when did he start to curse? That little...

"Let's go check the classrooms."

"But I swear they came this way."

"Says a guy with glasses."

"I see better with these than you without."

"Stop arguing, we need to find them now."

"No, you are arguing."

"Stop it you two!"

"Yeah, let's go, I will kick that wolf in his ugly face."

"Me too!"

"Let's kill him."

"Yeah, that's what he deserves."

"Hmmm, I wonder how does wolf meat taste like."

"Stupid, he is human."

"Sorry, I forgot. But I still wonder about wolf meat."

"Go ask Red Riding Hood."

"Yeah."

After deciding where to search next the boys left and silence fell in the room. I even held my breathe while they were there, determined not to be found. Feeling like a little kid again I realized I was actually having fun.

I stared over Seung Hyun's shoulder at the silver rays of the moon falling over the floor like a spotlight. The curtain fluttered in the weak wind and Seung Hyun leaned to the side to push it out of the way just when my gaze shifted up.

A happy smile occupied his lips and his eyes twinkled with excitement, he let out a soft chuckle while his eyes scanned the empty room.

He was so close I smelled his cologne, well, he always came so close but suddenly there was something different. Maybe it was the moonlight and the darkness of the night but there was something incredibly magical about him on that particular moment.

His messy, choppy hair fell over his sparkling deep hazel eyes and high cheek bones, throwing black shadows on the sides of his face and neck. His warmth enveloped me numbing my senses, I felt his breathe on my hair. I felt him around myself and I wanted to hug him to get him even closer. Just when my hands started raising up Seung Hyun puckered his lips, his eyes darting at my concentrated face.

"Let's go scare the heck outta them" he spoke enthusiastically as he took a step back.

I looked at him in disbelief. He ruined my magical fairy tale moment. He totally ruined it. My face feel in
